Is Dictionary - Word Definitions safe?
Dictionary - Word Definitions loads links and banner HTML from linangdata.com into its popup.
When the popup opens, it requests link and banner content from linangdata.com and inserts it into the popup. Links in that content open in new tabs when clicked. Only a timestamp-based value is sent with these requests; no browsing data is transmitted.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Dictionary contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
